I want to see a new Parappa on Vita using back touchpad, gyros and maybe even mic or camera and a PS4 Wipeout. And a PS4 Syphon Filter too.

And The Order sequel. Maybe this time as a 200 hours long MMORPG with tons of repetitive sidequests, soccer minigames, CoD/Michael Bay-ish explosions, thousands of stupid collectables and mushroom headed guys (doesn't matter if in zombie version) to get good reviews.

What i dont understand.....Naughty Dog obviously doesnt want to work on another Jak & Daxter Game (new direction of the studio, realism, )

Then why dont they hand over this franchise to another studio?

I really like Jak, but it's one of those titles that I don't want to see revisited. I didn't really enjoy the one on PSP as much as the PS2 titles, and I think it's better to have new IP now. Even if a new one were to somehow be made, I'd be very hesitant about it in terms of my expectations for it. I probably wouldn't allow myself to be excited for it. There are titles like Puppeteer and Tearaway that ooze a lot of charm, so I'm always up for new platformers or action/adventures with a more stylised art style. I prefer them being new though.

Then there's Knack...

I guess older IPs aren't always a bad idea. Sometimes. Maybe. If the new IP is Knack level I guess.

They actually wanted to but couldn't find any good idea, that's why they made TLOU.

They did hand over the franchise to other studio, there was RAD who did Daxter and High Impact Games who did The Lost Frontier.

Yeah i remember those concepts works..

still i think Jak and Daxter is a pretty huge IP and from an financial perspective it would also be a waste, not to do anything with it on consoles.
We get Ratchet & Clank, we get Sly Cooper on Ps4 but no Jak & Daxter...That sucks

Hasn't this been gone over enough times already? If Sony owns, funds and publishes a title, it's first party. Lair, The Order: 1886 and Bloodborne are first party.
Click to expand...

The first problem begins with the terminology:

It's not "first-party studios" it should be "studios developing first-party games". A studio or company being partially or fully owned doesn't mean they will make "first-party games". A studio owned by a hardware maker might quite easily develop a game for a third party publisher (Brownie Brown, Monolith Soft, Sony Online Entertainment, etc.)

It's never about who is developing the game, especially in a tricky age where games have multiple development agencies present. It's always about what publisher is the game being developed for; a first party or a third party.

I think there's some minor tweaks that would be needed for The Order sequel right off the bat. Little things that go a long way. For example, not forcing people to walk constantly, as sometimes this feels restricting. Allow players to run around, which helps with exploration too. Being able to holster and aim your weapon freely when you're playing. Minimising QTEs, or at least, integrating them a little better so there aren't too many varying ones. This is minor stuff that could help a lot in terms of how the player feels.

In terms of the more key design aspects, I feel better level design, and encounter design, would go a long way to help them gaining criticial appreciation. There's a fight right before the end that demonstrates the potential for a more dynamic encounter quite well. More of that with varied enemies in a lengthier campaign would be very memorable. The core gunplay is very good, and they have a solid base in terms of story presentation, so they just need to push themselves further now.

I think there's a lot of potential in a sequel if it's allowed to cook for a little longer. I really liked The Order, even with its flaws, so I'm excited to see them get a chance to really expand on it.

No Jak games because his design's fugly an if they changed it significantly you'd get fans whining about it.

im curious how sony is reaction to all that shitstorm happening around this game. Will it harm the partnership with ready at dawn? Will a sequel depend on the sales of this game?
I really hope RAD gets the Chance to create a sequel.. I see a huge potential in this IP....And now with the finished Engine, RAD could focus on other lacking aspects

They're crying tears of dishonour. Shu is handing in his resignation, Michael Denny has taken to the drink, Andrea is reconsidering his passion for weights, and Andrew House still hasn't lifted his head from shame, even though it's been many days, and his back is probably really hurting by now. Serious business, let me tell you.

Hey Verendus, how is Sony's E3 shaping up. Does it look to be better than last year's?
Click to expand...
Even without knowing everything right now, it's pretty easy to say it'll be better. Anything decent would probably be better than last year. I honestly think the E3 conference's biggest issue is pacing, and presentation. Even in 2013, it dragged. The Gamescom presentation last year was a lot better in my eyes. Microsoft has done well in terms of presentation the past two years (at least I remember last year being pretty good in terms of how it was presented, I can't remember that well).

No one is teasing. Make conversation. Or complain, that's fine too, but do it with flair. I troll all the time, so I won't mind.

So they have two, or could just be one that is unrelated to Sony...? Dammit, I'm lost.

Sony's E3 last year was decent, but nothing notably special either.LBP3 wasn't unexpected, Bloodborne got leaked. The bigger surprises came by Adam Boyes's team.

He probably enjoys it. I'd imagine he was about to give the biggest spoiler of all, but you've just ruined our chances.

Bloodborne getting leaked a few days earlier does not make it any less impressive. Don't go on gaf if you don't want to know what the event is going to be about, and then call it unimpressive because you find out what games they're presenting. :p

I don't know, but there's likely going to be some "filler" as there is every year. I can imagine a few talking points. Nothing like last years Powers segment though, which was positioned poorly, and was kind of incoherent. That won't happen again. As long as there are no leaks to take the wind out of some sails, I think this is a good year in terms of revealing a fair amount of new games since the first phase is kind of over. I think they need to make a strong effort to have a tight ninety minute presentation though. I've never thought the content was poor, just that the way it's presented can be very lacking. That's really the biggest problem in my eyes.

Well they do, games like Gravity Rush 2 and unannounced big jrpg according to Verendus. Who knows if they will throw in a little surprise, like Ape Escape and Legend of dragoon 2 :p
